Troll's Greatest Hits

Sign in to disble this ad
So, often times at work, if I need some fun during the workday, I will come to talkbass. Listen to discussions about basses and strings, and sometimes join in and contribute (in my brief period here).

Sometimes, though, I get caught up reading some of the greatest troll stuff. I'm sorry, it can be so entertaining.

I wanted to know if we can compile a list of some of the funniest, most amusing troll threads ever. I love being able to read some of this stuff during downtime.

Who can provide some of the best?

There is a hall of fame around here somewhere, though Im unsure as to how to access it.

Search for Xtreo's "coming out of the closet" thread. Great stuff!

I was fond of the guy offering cash for atheists.

It's in the lobby. Viper, you won't be able to access it because you aren't a supporting member, but you can click my quoted sig from Eric Albany and read that thread. It's epic.

I found the Xtreo thread.

I finally came out of the closet

Any others with links?

Edit - Oh I've seen that Ric thread. That was outstanding how that ended. He got me hooked on trolltainment.

I'm still reading it. You don't see threads like this today. TB got pretty strict these days.

This was one of my favorites as well (a NTB thread)...

Poor thing

I don't know if it would qualify as a proper troll thread, but it's amusing nonetheless: Look up a thread from the user DeluxeRed, who bragged about how he got two bass players from other bands fired because their bandleaders were so much more impressed with Deluxe's stage presence. The real hilarity kicks into overdrive when a poster digs up some videos of Deluxe and it becomes apparent that his stage presence is pretty lame. There were a few sequel threads to the original, including a thread in which RedDeluxe comes back with some more up to date videos, which he claimed were a better representation of him and his band (but were actually pretty much the same thing as the original videos).

Edit:

I can't access the original thread. Apparently, it's in the Lobby now. :\ But here's the sequel: DR dropped by to share vids

Wow, i wish i was here during this whole nickthebassist affair, just looked through a bunch of threads and I am intrigued, from bird vacuuming, bb gun assault, government mooching/horrible parenting, and 100 post threads on other forums with them expressing their disdain for the guy...

Truly an epic and masterful troll, the likes of which I have never seen!
